Kensington, NSW 2033
Overview
Kensington lies four kilometres south‑east of the Sydney CBD in the City of Randwick, between Moore Park and Randwick Racecourse. The suburb mixes university energy – the University of New South Wales and the National Institute of Dramatic Art – with green spaces, including six parks such as the 2.8‑hectare Kensington Park that draws native birds. A modest café and retail strip runs along Anzac Parade, highlighted by Peters of Kensington, while the Australian Golf Club and historic racing venues add a leisure focus.
Anzac Parade provides frequent bus services and, since April 2020, the CBD and South East Light Rail links Kensington to Circular Quay. Housing is mainly high‑density, with 71.4 % flats or apartments, 21 % separate houses and 7 % townhouses, supporting 11,927 residents (2021 Census). Heritage‑listed sites such as Sacred Heart Monastery and the former WD & HO Wills building enrich the suburb’s character.
